I don't remotely understand how to play this game. I'm just faliling around and getting my ass kicked.

And I can't twist to curve punches for the life of me.

 

[djcatskratch]

Played a few matches, was enough to convince me to want to get the full game for the SP and other non-online modes. Looks amazing in motion and so bright and vibrant. Nintendo is killing it with their original IPs!

 

[BizzyBum]

First match was a Double KO. LOL

 

[Thoraxes]

If you press L and R in the lobby, you can chime along to the music.

 

[Biske]

Havent been able to connect to a single match. awwww yeah Glad it only last an hour! That way I wont be able to play at alll ooooo yeah

 

[SomewhatGroovy]

how do I switch targets?

Shoulder button I think

 

[I Wanna Be The Guy]

I don't understand charging punches

 

[Kikorin]

Is always giving me error 2618-0516

 

[Hasney]

Too drunk to play but it is so damn fun.

I mean I can't connect to anyone without error but the tutorials are a blast.

Is always giving me error 2618-0516

Hard reboot. Fixed it for me.

 

[Vic]

OK, played for a good 15 mins and this is good.

 

[TheChits]

2 vs 2 is super duper fun

 

[pgharavi]

looks 720p in docked mode - anyone confirm?

 

[BuggyMike]

The visuals are fucking beautiful btw

 

[Kalor]

how do I switch targets?

Flick the right stick

 

[Kouriozan]

I also notice almost nobody charge punches.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

I like listening to the theme song more than actually playing it so far.

 

[Stone Ocean]

how do I switch targets?

Right analog

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

This game is a whole lot better with button inputs. Motion controls are out for me. I can't do it.

 

[Stairouais]

I'm having a fucking blast

 

[Mediking]

Just started playing!!! Handheld mode is awesome! Graphics looks amazing! I'm playing as Min-Min! THIS IS A GREAT NEW IP!!!

 

[Coolbgdog12]

How the fuck do you move?? My shit is not moving left and right to the motion controls.

I feel like it's not working.

 

[DXB-KNIGHT]

This is my first try and I'm on a continuous winning streak
My ass will be handed to me once good players are available 😂

 

[Askherserenity]

So far everyone is abusing the shit out of grabs.

Of course they are. Everyone has been playing the game for like 20 minutes.

 

[AquaWateria]

Hows handheld mode?

 

[JershJopstin]

Seems I was wrong about local. Sorry.

 

[BitStyle]

I got 42 atm

 

[Ozium]

I also notice almost nobody charge punches.

you can charge punches?

enjoying 1v1 A LOT more than the free for all shit

 

[CharminUltra]

I've already had several frantic and intense fights.

I'm also guessing there are some Nintendo employees around because damn, some people were already juggling and shit.

 

[Hasney]

So far everyone is abusing the shit out of grabs.

Yup. So easy to dodge and punish with a curved opposite to where I dodged.

 

[TeegsD]

Playing with a sideways joy con and loving it. Motion controls were not bad at all though

 

[vehn]

This got split screen coop at all?

 

[OverturePT]

Alright, I'm sold. Fucking crazy lobby man, just had two battles against other 2 people and it was intense as hell. 2v2 was also pretty fun.

 

[Cody_D165]

this game is fucking nuts

 

[Speely]

Just came back vs mummy and helix in 2v2 after my teammate went down. Playing as helix...


WHAT A RUSH.

This game owns.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

I lost like 12 matches in a row until I switched to normal controls. Now I'm doing super well.

 

[dacalo]

Nintendo has another hit in their hands. Gonna pre-order now lol. Super fun.

 

[sviri]

i just got fucking slaughtered in volleyball. not feeling it

 

[Revolutionary]

Volleyball seems kinda trash

 

[timshundo]

This game!!!!!!!!

They should make weighted joycons. Like 7lbs lol

 

[Charamiwa]

Quick thoughts after 20 minutes: game looks really good in handheld mode, and is fun but playing without motion control I feel like I'm at a huge advantage? I've been shitting on people for 6 matches straight and I'm not really good, I do a lot of jump and dashes, mixing up some punches and that gets me to victory pretty easily. Maybe motion control is at a huge disadvantage for now.

 

[selo]

Its pretty fun so far, already on a 10 win streak with min min


Been playing in handheld mode BTW, I'll try motion controls in a bit

 

[Listonosh]

Ohhhhh ok.

Nice to know Nintendo's already sent the game out for review. Are you allowed to say when the embargo lifts?

I can tell you that well before the release date

 

[Hyrule Warrior]

Even the non-motion controls don't really feel very intuitive to me. Just doesn't quite click.

 

[codemonkey]

So I learned one thing, I utterly suck at this game. I think I only won one fight so far. Motion controls still feel a bit unusual but overall great fun. Min Min is bae. The connection is so much better than Mario Kart, it's ridiculous. Also really liking the lobby system.

 

[Diprosalic]

10-0 so far

 

[BRocknRolla]

Oh no. These motion controls are definitely not gonna work out for me. I was so bad.

Maybe give it more than a match or two?

 

[SomewhatGroovy]

i just got fucking slaughtered in volleyball. not feeling it

We're you green dude using spin blades? Think that was me playing u

 

[btrboyev]

I'm kicking everyone's ass in this. No idea how, but I haven't lost a match in 11 tries.

 

[AaronMT86]

I can't imagine playing this game without motion controls.

 

[Gaiaknight]

looks 720p in docked mode - anyone confirm?

Digital foundry said in 2 player matches its 1080p any more and it drops to 900p
